Not sure why it was such a short drive, the workspace is just sandy regolith, and there was no wheel slip during the drive. Maybe they are deciding which path to take, the notional path to the SSW or head north to some white rocks seen upslope… Decisions decisions ;)
fixed typo in direction of notional path :)

They chose North on 1301 :) see https://mars.nasa.gov/maps/location/?mission=M20
Not quite the place I was thinking of, but we have a good selection of targets for arm work :)
